| title = Auxiliary Feedwater System Actuation Due to Main Feed Pump Trips
| event text = An Auxiliary Feedwater [AFW] actuation occurred with the plant in Mode 3, Main Feedwater out of service and a cooldown in progress.  An AFW actuation was received when both main feed pumps tripped due to low condenser vacuum.  AFW was already in service with both motor-driven pumps running  and discharge valves throttled to maintain steam generator level.  A surveillance to test AFW actuation on the trip of main feedwater pumps was in progress.  The main feed pump trip signal was generated when condenser vacuum was broken prior to completing the test and blocking the actuation signal from the main feed pumps to AFW.  Steam generator blowdown and sample valves isolated and MDAFW [Motor Driven AFW] discharge valves opened as expected.  Operators took action to throttle AFW feed to the steam generators.  No adverse affects on the plant occurred.  The AFW actuation signal from the trip of main feed pumps has been blocked as allowed by plant conditions.
